SOPHOMORE QUIDDITCH PRACTICE

It's a windy, partly cloudy day, but it's definitely warm enough for the Sophomores to head out onto the pitch to work on the Quidditch skills. Calvin Evercreech is running it, but when it comes to actually getting on brooms and playing, he lets Jefferson Key, Micah St. Clair, Susana Velasquez and Solomon Webb take point.

There'll be time to run through the rules with everyone, and then it's on to drills where players can practice catching and throwing, hitting with a Beater's bat, blocking goals and snatching the Snitch.

HOW THIS WORKS

• Earlier, Calvin posted the rosters for the Sophomore league that he and Micah came up with here.


• However, considering how new most of these wide-eyed kids are to Quidditch, today is focused on making sure everyone can at least semi-competently play their position.


• There's loaner gear available if your character doesn't have any of their own.


• This is a Sophomore-only event. No older students were invited to help, and an audience is going to make these kids uncomfortable. :(

» RULES: Now this is something Calvin can do! Calvin and other more experienced players explain the rules and regulations to anyone who's new to the sport.

» DRILLS: Thanks to the generosity of the acting house captains, there are drills set up to help everyone get accustomed to their new position.

» HELP: If your character needs one-on-one aid from a more experienced player, here's where to get it.

"Know how to catch." Okay, so Cash is sitting over here because he doesn't know jack about shit either, but that has never stopped him from being a little bit of a dick. Sorry, Issie. He thinks he's funny. He also thinks he's going to be bad at this, which is why he has a tiny reporter's notebook out and ready. Go on, guys. Lay these hot tips on him. He's taking notes.

Essie laughs. She thinks you're funny, Cash. Should she be taking notes? Probably, but Essie would toss all her textbooks out the window if she could. She's eager to actually try getting up in the air, but she'll try very, VERY hard to contain her excitement and listen to all the TALKING first.
